In your vignette, you illustrate using my docxtools package to create power-of-ten notation for display in a table. I was hoping to archive docxtools (basically removing it from active use on CRAN) because it is time-consuming to maintain (too many dependencies that keep changing and break my code).

My newer formatdown package contains improved power-of-ten (and other) notation features---and is written with fewer (and more robust) dependencies.

In this pull request, I created a new branch with changes to replace the docxtools example in the vignette with relevant formatdown functions to achieve the same result. I also edited the "Suggests" section of the Description file.

Thanks for considering this revision!

Thanks, I'll add that to my list for my next revision. I hope to do this in the next couple of months. I appreciate your suggestion, especially taking the time to demonstrate how I might revise this.
